Hi,> 1. For the Analog Addict 'El Cheapo' phono stage, where does one

If you do a search, I discussed my own take on that a while back, these chargers have a minimum sonic impact if charging when playing, most chargers do offer that.

Non that I'd consider very relevant.

Depends upon a lot of factors. The "El Cheapo" has a gain of around 120 @ 1KHz and will clip when fed from 12V batteries at around 6V RMS. Thus up to 50mV RMS can be applied. The active RIAA does not waste any headroom like all passive EQ designs do, thus high gain for level parity with CD and excellent overload behaviour can be BOTH achieved.
